Over at Nerdy Book Club, there is a post detailing some cool book box subscriptions and "one-time-onlys" for the young readers in your life. Check out the post here.
And for all you library staffers out there, if you're tired of receiving heart-felt but sometimes useless things from the people you love during holiday or gift-giving, why don't you see if family members would give you a gift of membership to the Wisconsin Library Association or other professional organization you love but pinch pennies to join! WLA costs $50/year plus $3 for every additional $1000 of salary. My mom used to do that for me and I loved her for it! No more bread-making machines or card tables!!
